Why do I do it? November 13, 2007
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I should know better. Same plot, same less than two-dimensional characters, same stilted dialogue. I suppose Mr Cook has written too many 'successful' books now for his editors to dare to ask him whether he's ever heard people speak the way his characters do. Try reading some of the conversations out loud and, if you can get your head round the way he constructs a sentence, try not to fall on the floor laughing. I'm constitutionally incapable of not finishing a book (apart from one by Robert Ludlum), but I wish I'd hurled this one some distance after the first chapter. I'm a slow learner, but I won't be buying another.
